Abstract

Health equity is not only an important target of sustainable development advocated by the UN but also a significant strategic objective of the national policy called "Healthy China". In the context of aging society, this study focuses on the equity issue of community pension facilities in terms of its spatial distribution. Based on the concept of health equity, this paper selects the central city of Shanghai (the area within the outer ring highway) as the study area, adopts a series of types of community pension facilities as the analysis objects, and adopts Gini coefficient and Lorentz curve to compare and analyze the equity in distribution of the various community pension facilities. It is followed with the LISA analysis to analyze the spatial distribution pattern of the association between the community pension facilities and the elderly population, and then identify the significant imbalance areas with high demand but low provision. This paper aims to providing an empirical research basis for the special planning of pension facilities. The study discovers that the Gini coefficient of community pension facilities in Shanghai presents generally as high as a large distribution gap. Among them, day care institutions have the highest Gini coefficient, which is a key community pension facility that needs to be considered and supplemented in future urban development and planning. The analysis results present that the distribution and concentration of the spatial units with high demand but low provision is relatively coherent for all facilities, but the elderly care home has the largest number of this type of spatial units.

Key words
